Comments by "Deborah Freedman" (@deborahfreedman333) on "Saudi Arabia promises to retaliate over any sanctions" video.
I'm not a fan of Trump or the Saudis, but distrust Erdogan even more. The only information we have about this matter comes from the Turkish government. It is more than a coincidence that the pastor Turkey was holding was released as soon as this incident was reported by Turkey. The story that recordings were transmitted by Khashoggi's watch is not credible; the range of Bluetooth is not that great. Saudi Arabia's motives are not that strong. The Turkish government is not trustworthy, its story is full of holes. The Turks align with, our enemy, Iran. The Saudis do not. Both Saudi Arabia and Turkey want to be the dominant power of the middle east. Erdogan has good reason to tar the Saudi's reputation. The Turkish economy was tanking, they needed to end the sanctions while saving face. The Turk's motive to create this incident is very strong. Unless we have evidence from a different source confirming the Saudis did this, we should not act.
